A veteran sports broadcaster has found a new home.

Jim Toth announced on social media Friday he is TSN 1290’s newest morning show host, starting after the long weekend.

“Happy to announce I will be joining TSN 1290 Radio on The Big Show weekday mornings 6-10 starting Tuesday Sept. 6 with Troy Westwood and Brandon Rewucki,” he said on Twitter. “The Hair will ride again.”

Toth was last at Corus Entertainment’s CJOB, but was laid off during their last restructuring in 2015. Before CJOB, he was with Shaw TV for about a decade.

The news comes after layoffs and restructuring were announced Thursday at Corus Entertainment, including the departure of Kathy Kennedy. TSN 1290 is owned by Bell Media.
